Saw an AI shill on LinkedIn trying to use the fact that Hip Hop artists got away with sampling tracks in the 80’s so AI is inevitable…

Thing is there are tonnes of examples of the court siding with the artist who was sampled, or an out of court settlement showing that sampling was infringement.

Today is usually my wife’s writing day, but she submitted a manuscript to her publisher yesterday and I hear people shouting intensely in Japanese coming from the living room.

I think she’s finally playing Ghosts of Tsushima…

really enjoying all the people trying to explain the bible to the pope today

Pope Leo XIV
Today, more than ever, we must return to the heart, the center of feeling and emotion, the locus of freedom. Though it includes reason, the heart transcends and transforms it. Only by returning to the heart can we undergo a true ecological conversion that transforms our personal

Better they used different music than using your music unlicensed, better still if they paid you and used your music.

The remake is called Super Haxagon rather than Super Hexagon.

Someone has reimplemented Super Hexagon for the 3DS. But without @chipzel.bsky.social ‘s banging soundtrack it just doesn’t hit the same…
